perf/x86/intel: Filter branches for PEBS event
For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e88630 ("perf/x86: Add Intel LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT. However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS events. This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of intel_pebs_constraints(). We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and x86_get_event_constraint().
